There are some games that constantly perform in terms of sales when a new edition is released and Forza Motorsport 5 is one of them. This time round there is a new graphics engine, while gameplay just seems much smoother. The cars are easy to handle, but not too easy, while there are many complex corners that can catch you out. You have to have your own tactics to come away as the winner of a race, and when you’ve finished the storyline, you’ll love the new multiplayer modes. You can use the smart match to race online with people who have a similar racing style, while Top Gear presented...

Puzzle Agent: From Fargo to Twin Peaks
This past year has seen a huge boost in popularity and interest in two of my favourite, weird, franchises; Twin Peaks and Fargo. While very much their own series, they have a lot of things in common, a lot of things that have resonated with the viewing public. Puzzle Agent is a game from Telltale Studios; famous for their work on The Walking Dead, The Wolf Among Us and their upcoming take on the Minecraft franchise. The game is set in Scoggins, Minnesota, and focuses on a man named Nelson Tethers, a puzzle solving expert for the CIA.

Playstation 4 vs Xbox One: Price
A year ago this was a simple discussion; Sony’s Playstation 4 was £349/$399 while the Xbox One was £429/$499. That was where the discussion stopped; the Playstation 4 was a whole lot cheaper. But now, twelve months later, the conversation has got a lot more complicated for shoppers.

FIFA 15: The Perfect Cure for Football Blues
Some things in life are certain; we’re born, we die and every single year, without fail, we get a FIFA game (some years we even get two!) Over the years the competition has always been between football game series; FIFA and Pro Evolution Soccer. During the early 2000s Pro Evolution Soccer was the king; beautiful gameplay, reminiscent of the real life beautiful sport, but with no licensed names or stadiums, both of which are excellent in FIFA.
